2. The inhibition of actin polymerization by latrunculin-A markedly depressed force development in response to ACh but had no effect on ACh induced myosin light chain ( MLC ) phosphorylation
Sohn et al., Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol 2001
:
In smooth muscle cells enzymatically isolated from circular muscle of the esophagus ( ESO ) and lower esophageal sphincter ( LES ), ACh induced contraction and myosin light chain ( MLC ) phosphorylation were similar
Gunst et al., Am J Physiol 1992
:
The effects of ACh and McN-A-343 on intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), myosin light chain ( MLC ) phosphorylation, active stress, and isotonic shortening velocity were compared to determine whether differences in their potency at stimulating second messenger pathways affected their ability to modulate the Ca2+ sensitivity of contractile filament activation
Mochida et al., Microsc Res Tech 1994
(Synaptic Transmission) :
In this model synapse we tested the possible role of myosin in ACh release ... These indicate that phosphorylation of myosin by MLCK may be necessary for ACh release mechanisms
